    A Blessed Man

    Contributed by Rodney V Johnson on Oct 5, 2021
     | 7,827 views

    We think of blessings as it relates to material things and riches. However, Psalm One talks about a blessed man (or woman) as defined by their relationship with God and His Word. This message examines who is truly blessed in God's eyes.

    Many are perishing from thirst, spiritually, even while there is an abundant supply of the Water of Life in reach of everyone in the land. We are blessed not just materially, but spiritually - yet we done even realize it.

    Some years ago in the newspapers there was a female novelist found dead in the desert of America. She had died of thirst. It seems that she had started out across the desert thinking she had enough water to make the trip; However when she stopped to get a swallow she found out that her canteen was ...read more

    He used three earthly materials: Salt, Light and City, to explain spiritual truth by giving a clear distinction between the disciple and the world with regards to his position and mission (Mat 5:13-16).

    THE DISCIPLE AS THE SALT "Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savor, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under, foot of men. Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.’ ...read more

     | 10,446 views

    In response to the temptation to throw himself into the rat race called material satisfaction, Jesus finds a calm centre, an anchor in the word of God. That centered faith will enable him to deal with all the other temptations to come.

    This sermon deals with the importance of setting goals. It is a revision of the sermon material given to us in Rick Warren's Transformation series as our church went through the series. I highly recommend the series for your church.

    Most of this material was done by Rick Warren in the 50 Days Of Transformation Series. I reworked some of the material and eliminated a lot because of the length of the sermon. We used the material to kick off a church campaign for growth. Welcome to 50 Days of Transformation as we continue The ...read more
